My Lords, the Government recognise that pharmacies are integral to the fabric of our communities. They provide an easily accessible front door to the NHS and are staffed by highly trained and skilled healthcare professionals. We have now recommenced the consultation with Community Pharmacy England on funding arrangements, which was not able to be concluded before the General Election.

In a general election, each constituency chooses an MP to represent it by process of election. The party who wins the most seats in parliament is in power, with its leader becoming Prime Minister and its Ministers/Shadow Ministers making up the new Cabinet. If no party has a majority, this is known as a hung Parliament. The next general election will take place on or before 3rd June 2010.
